Sexism against men

So, I came across this photo concluding 'real men still do this'. Needless to say, it was reinforced with many positive Facebook comments from people like yourselves.

Let me post another picture, this depicts a women cooking with the same slogan.

How do you feel about this one?
Hypocritical disgust from socially engineered eglitarianism by any chance?

Gender expectations of women have undoubtedly clouded over the past century, whilst mens has largely remained static.

Sexism against men within society is growing, it isn't overwhelming, and can never be compared to the ordeal women went through for centuries, but it is there. The problem is that, at the moment, sexism against men is considered a funny joke. The feminist movement all started here in the UK, a century later and the movement is still fighting. There is nothing wrong with this, it was much needed. However, some people cannot even comprehend the idea of sexism against men, because we have been so used to the idea of opressed women.

 

(Is it commonly men that are stereotyped into being the actors of parental negligence?)

 

Women get immunity and advantages in more areas than we like to keep whilst vigorously beating the equality wardrums. Take a look at military service, national service, conscription, and court cases involving custody of kids, which certainly favour women. All the most dangerous jobs are still dominated by men coupled with the highest number of work related deaths. Generally men get shorter extended leave when babies are involved but policies forcing equal pay never reflect this. Also statistically jail sentences are usually more lenient for women for similar offences particularly rape or sexual assault (which again is mostly unacknowledged). The education systems, widely found now throughout the West, seems to completely favour women in all aspects of study. Girls now outstrip boys by a growing disproportion year on year and nothing is done about it. If you want equality there has to be a balancing responsibility and such advantages need to be minimised on both sides, not merely emphasis on one. Sexism against men is there, sometimes more than we think, just look a little harder and scratch the surface. Ultimately in a modern society feminism should involve equality for both genders more frequently, not just for women.

The Cameron Delusion

Britain is moving in the 'right direction' Cameron claims today in his New Years message. The PM forgets to mention that the UK, after a century of continuous decline, is now stumbling quicker than ever off the world barometer.  Countries like India, Korea, Mexico, Russia and Turkey will eventually overtake the UK in terms GDP. Arab countries now have equally sophisticated military hardware and scramble to buy our latest fighter jets. The British army presently would not even fill the capacity of the Welmbley Stadium. The old Empire could call upon millions to fight for her. The RAF now has fewer fighter jets than the air museum at Duxford. The mighty Royal Navy, which ruled the seas undefeated for centuries reduced to just 27 active ships, has been virtually sunk. Whilst I have no animosity towards countries doing better for themselves, and indeed a restoration of balance was needed after the West’s absurd monopolisation, I just hope that our self-righteous politicians will drop the elevated role they have dumped on our shoulders. The UK is not 'headed in the right direction'. Let me remind you that Cameron voted for both the Iraq war and bombing of Libeya more recently. This is not the same country that conquered the world and we cannot be misguided by the past.  No longer can our indebted selves and shrivelled powers solve the world’s problems; feed the poor and topple dictators. Next time a deluded politician starts stampeding and asks, 'can you go and do this?' Remember to say to them, 'with what exactly?'

(This post is not promoting an increase to the military budget, but is an attack on failing Western policies and poorly judged interventalist idealism. The mainstream politician's in power continue to arrogantly view the world through a narrow field regardless of shrinking budgets and waning influence.)
